Dear Patrick,
The following two books might be of some use:
Francoise Beriac, Histoire des lepreux au moyen age: Une societe
d'exclus (Paris: Imago, 1988),
and
Nicole Beriou and Francois-Olivier Touati, Voluntate dei leprosus: Les
Lepreux entre conversion et exclusion aux xiieme et xiiieme siecles.
Testi, Studi, Strumenti 4 (Spoleto, 1991). This one contains several
sermons on leprosy.
Good luck!
